What the guys around here are doing to get their 460/514 and also the high FE engines to clear is making the hood scoops taller and larger. I use a small block FE engine and I lowered the engine just a little as I had no way to have my hood scoop redone at the time. I wish I had been able to have had my scoop redone at the time I built my car as I could have used another intake manifold and picked up about 15 more horsepower. So you can talk to any good fiberglass shop around where you live and ask them about enlarging the hood scoop.
